all you M6 fans, Isn't mazda ALSO owned by Ford??

M6, u mean referring to Mazda 6?
I'm an owner of one. Why does ownership matter when the vehicle speaks for itself in terms of a great value sporty sedan?
*winner of 50 international awards
*car of the year runner up by edmunds.com
*great reliability of Mazda regardless of who owns it above.
no relationship whatsoever, i was just thinking of the guy that wrote "but it's still just a ford" when discussions of GT40 were rampant.
and then i saw the Aston Martin thread and it got me to thinking of other companies owned by Ford. hence the thread.
Ford owns Lincoln, Volvo, Jaguar, Mercury, Land Rover too
Daimler-Chrysler owns a ton
GM/Pontiac/Chevrolet has a bunch
Its like pop. There is coke and there is pepsi. Many "other" drinks are owned by one of those two. They each have their own bottled water name brands too. I'm a coke faithful (for colas) but love dr pepper.
Chevrolet was started by a Frenchman. You don't see those "freedom" Americans boycotting their Chevrolets do you?
Who gives a fsck.

i believe ford now owns a majority share. they did own 33% but they bought back the dearborn plant from mazda and they bought more mazda stock (that was like 7 yrs ago i believe) and currently own a majority share of mazda.

Mazda 3 is built in Japan.
The Mazda 6 is build in Detroit.
Mazda 3 > Mazda 6
(Even looking at the two, the 3 looks far more solid and substantial.)

Ford owns controlling interest in Mazda, but Mazda is still fairly independent.
That said the Mazda 6 is built in the same Ford plant as the '05 Mustang is being built in.
